EDT-5512: Rightful Presence in the Experiential Classroom

This course is designed to support classroom practitioners in their implementation of Experiential Learning practices in the classroom. Human beings learn within relationships and in spaces that allow them to be present enough to take risks. This course will utilize the concept of Rightful Presence (Calabrese, Barton and Tan) to engage learning about the partnership, relationships, practices, and constructs necessary to enable students to engage in meaningful, and experiential learning within a collaborative learning community. Students in this course will engage in reflection and application of what it means to create learning spaces promoting partnerships in learning with the students in their classroom - providing the tools that support constructive relationships, student inquiry, and the habits that support both. At the center of this is the construct of Rightful Presence where all students can embrace true belonging, know that they are inherently valuable, and experience learning outside of the guest/host dynamic where a teacher “invites” students to the classroom. In a classroom centered on Rightful Presence there is a balance of power where all members of the classroom, educators and students, are learners and members of the learning community.
